Brier Creek Country Club Reviews

Food was great and it was a very cozy experience. The coordinators was super communicative and the entire process went so smoothly !

I used this venue to have my 17 year old daughter’s Repass.
The event planner Dorinda was an exceptional and compassionate.
She setup the entire event for me and picked the menu.
I was beyond impressed!
Highly recommend!

Doranda and her team were amazing! Planning a wedding during a pandemic is not easy and things were constantly evolving. Doranda was on top of things every step of the way. We lost our ceremony venue and moving it to Brier Creek was not a problem at all. The food was delicious! All of our guests complimented us on the quality of the food selected for hors d'oeuvres and dinner. I highly recommend working with Doranda and her team at Brier Creek!

Our wedding day was amazing thanks to Shannon and her team. The planning process was easy and the day itself ran smoothly.

Brier Creek Country Club was the perfect venue for our wedding. Everything went so smoothly and working with Shannon and Doranda was a pleasure. They're both very responsive and answered my millions of questions in a timely manner. I had to plan our wedding from across the country, and Shannon helped me throughout the way guiding me in the best direction so that our wedding would be spectacular and cost-effective for us. She replaced Bryce, who was the original venue coordinator, and from the get-go Shannon just ran along with everything! The spaces for getting ready, the bathrooms, the ceremony space, cocktail hour area, and reception ballroom are all different, beautiful, and elegant. I can't wait to see how our pictures look! On the day of the wedding, Shannon made sure that we were well-taken care of with food and drinks in our hands! The service staff was beyond amazing, especially our bartender Theresa, who my guests raved about and loved. Equally as important, the food was so delicious! We got so many compliments from our guests. I can't thank Brier Creek enough for helping us have the wedding of our dreams and working with us in so many different ways. Thank you!!!

Can't say enough about this venue! They rolled with all the changes, and helped until the very end. The biggest plus, is all the food!! It's on site so you don't have to worry about a caterer and they can help design a meal that's different and special. We had a Caribbean themed meal and the whole wedding loved it!

I cannot say enough good things about Brier Creek Country Club. From the very beginning, Bryce and Doranda were professional, helpful, and responsive, and really worked hard to make my vision for my wedding come to life. Everything on our wedding day ran smoothly the venue was absolutely beautiful. I absolutely recommend Brier Creek Country Club as a wedding venue.

Bryce was so amazing in helping us choose a venue for our big day. She was extremely friendly and patient. My parents and in laws love her as well. She is also so welcoming and willing to answer any questions we have/had. We are so excited to be working with her and to have all our guests see how wonderful Brier Creek Country Club is and all the great things they have to offer.

BRIER CREEK COUNTRY CLUB WAS AMAZING!!! I cannot put into words how extremely pleased we are with how our wedding reception turned out. Bryce is literally the best person on the face of this planet, I'm not even joking - She was so flexible with our meetings and every possible thing I could have asked for. She made everything happen, and she always was so sweet with a smile on her face, even when my family was being crazy and arguing at a meeting, HA! BCCC took care of ALL of those little detail things that you may not have even thought about. Everything and everyone was exceptional - the food displays, the staff, the setup, the whole experience. The FOOD.... was so good. We couldn't stop talking about it, and we keep hearing from our guests how wonderful it was! The chef at BCCC is very good at what he does - he came up with such amazing ideas for our passed appetizers - so creative! He worked with us on whatever flavors or looks we wanted for plated food and our appetizers. We couldn't believe how accommodating and flexible the entire experience was. I said "can we...?" and they said "YES!" - That is the story of our experience and honestly I can't have imagined having a better venue for our wedding - really I have no idea what I would have done. I can't recommend BCCC enough - if you're deciding between another venue GO WITH BCCC, you will thank me later!!

Shelly is AMAZING. She was extremely organized and responsive to all of my questions and concerns. She made the planning process super easy for me. I had little doubt that the reception would go off without a hitch. Bryce and Victoria ran the show on the day of, and seemed to be working their butts off! The food was awesome...there wasn't any food left on any plates! The room was set up exactly as we had discussed and looked wonderful.

This place is beautiful. Not many options as far as ceremony and reception sites go but if youre not too picky its perfect. Bryce was amazing and extremely helpful in getting us to where we wanted to be in our budget and accomodating our needs and wants. This may be the one!

Brier Creek did a phenomenal job for both my ceremony and reception in May 2016. Shelly Keeter was very professional and responsive up until our wedding day. The entire staff on the day of the wedding were so accommodating and made my wedding party and guests feel right at home. Special shout out to Everett, our bartender for the night. Ed actually managed the entire day since Shelly had an event to go to on the day of our wedding. He did an excellent job making sure all the details I had planned with Shelly fell into place. All my decor, linens, flowers, and photobooth all set up according to what Shelly and I had discussed. We had our ceremony in the beautiful Jasmine court, which doesn't need much decor just some flowers down the aisle. Then we had our cocktail hour and reception at the Governor's lounge/ Palmer's Cove. I think this smaller portion of the venue is a great option if you have less than 70 guests like we did. There was another event in the ballroom next door but we didn't even here or notice because the service didn't miss a beat. After visiting over 10 different venues in the Triangle area, BCCC, check off all our boxes. Good location to airport and hotels for out of town guests, all catering handled onsite for fresh and high quality food, on site coordination for details (get a friend to coordinate your ceremony though), roomy bride and groom suites, beautiful and clean decor, outdoor patio for spring/fall/summer weddings, great staff and service, flexibility with packages (we opted out of champagne toast and got updated linens), and of course value, BCCC offered more for our dollar than other venues.

I cannot say enough good things about Brier Creek, and more specifically, Shelly Keeter. We only met with her twice (once to see the venue, another time to do the food tasting). We occasionally checked in to make sure we weren't overlooking anything, and she calmly assured us that she had everything under control. And boy did she ever! She took notes of every conversation we ever had with her. She made sure to include the specialty beer that we mentioned once in passing, having the tables ready first thing in the morning so we could have all day to set up, had fruit and wine waiting for us in the dressing room when we arrived, and placed all of our decorations perfectly. You don't have to micro manage Shelly. She is a well-experienced wedding planner, and Brier Creek is fortunate to have her.

Brier Creek's grounds are immaculate. The perfect place to take wedding photos. The reception space is huge (we easily sat 200 people with plenty of room to spare), there's a separate room and outdoor patio for cocktail hour, and an outside veranda for outdoor ceremonies. The food was superb. It literally melted in my mouth! Everyone raved about how great it was. The service was spectacular. At the end of the night, the staff neatly packed up all of our belongings and had them ready for us to pick up the next morning. Top notch event!

Everything was fantastic and went so smoothly. Shelly was wonderful to deal with - putting no stress on us through the entire process. The bridal party had access to a room the entire day which was wonderful. Since Shelly was not there the day of the event ~ Elise made sure to check in with us and kept everything on track in a very calm manner. They decorated the tables to perfection with our instruction; the servers were professional and very efficient. The food was excellent and presentation was wonderful - what a value for the per meal price (we tried to keep under $30 per head). The balcony adjoined to our room was a plus. Everyone was a joy to deal with. Thank You

We had our wedding outside at Jasmine Court and the reception in the main ballroom. The staff were amazing and everything went off without any issues. We cannot say enough AMAZING things about Shelly. She is so organized, professional and quick to respond to any emails or calls. It took so much stress off of us knowing that she had everything under control. She was helpful in the planning process by giving valuable advice on cost saving techniques and made sure we truly did have our unique fairytale wedding. The food was delicious and we loved the different options to choose from (stations/buffets/dinners).

Shelly and Elise have been great throughout the planning process! The venue is beautiful, spacious, inviting. The good options and packages are excellent and we look forward to a beautiful wedding on June 13!!

I got married at Brier Creek in September of 2014. Leading up to the event, the entire process with Shelly was amazing - she was very punctual, answered all of our questions and truly seemed like she was working WITH us every step of the way. I have a very type A personality and felt very relaxed and calm knowing that Shelly had everything handled. We had our ceremony outdoors under the pergola, which was a beautiful site - we got tons of compliments. We had the reception afterwards in the ballroom. As a bride, it meant a lot to me to not have to worry about coordinating anything the entire night, which is exactly what I got at BCCC. The staff was running around all night making sure all of my guests were attended to and that everyone had what they needed. The food was simply delicious - many guests said it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Shelly also stayed for the reception and made sure everything was flawless. My bustle broke on my dress during the night (very frustrating) but Shelly personally took about 15 minutes to fix it, which was quite a tedious process. Not only that, but she helped calm me down when I was getting anxious about holding up the ceremony schedule. I can't say enough good things about my experience here - I would definitely do it all again!

Brier Creek Country Club did an amazing job for our wedding reception! We chose the location after falling in love with Jasmine Court, their outdoor area. We knew we wanted an outdoor reception with a backup inside option should the weather not cooperate. Luckily we had a beautiful evening and everything from the décor to food and service exceeded our expectations. The space had a built in brick dance floor, we had bistro lights strung across the entire area, and enjoyed a beautiful sunset with the golf course backdrop (talk about picture perfect!). The food was phenomenal and they even brought out a few heaters in case anyone got cold later in the night.

The entire team was great to work with and Shelly especially went out of her way to ensure everything ran smoothly. We started working with Shelly after booking the venue and she was direct, laid back and gave advice at all the right times. She was there to help set up, coordinated with our vendors and stayed most of the night through dinner. We can’t say enough about her knowledge, flexibility, and ability to listen and truly understand what we wanted for the night. As soon as we told her we wanted the reception outside she was on board and excited!

We absolutely recommend Brier Creek. All our guests are still raving about the food and beautiful venue!

I couldn't have been more pleased with the way my wedding turned out. Shelly and her staff are so incredible to work with. Any questions I had they were always answered quickly. With Shelly overseeing my day I knew it would go smoothly and I didn't have a worry in the world, I got to enjoy my day like every bride deserves to. I heart Brier Creek! xo

Shelley Keeter and Brier Creek is an excellent venue for a wedding. From the very start, which was 11 months ahead of time, Shelley gave us the utmost attention to every detail. We did wedding planning, ordered chair rentals and custom linens, menu planning, (which we were given a full tasting of all our food), wedding rehearsal the nite before, procedure for ceremony and layout, full reign on the club for at least 6 hours on the day of the wedding, a room for the bride and attendants, and a room for the groom and ushers to get ready and prepare in. We had several meetings with Shelley all during the planning, and she did her best to make sure we felt welcome, and answered all of our questions immediately. The day of the wedding, Shelley was there to help with everything we needed, food to keep us going, cking on every detail, the ceremony room and flowers, the reception room, the cake placement, the DJ set up, guarding our card box, the pictures we had brought, room set up just for us, and a shoulder to lean on and cry if we needed it. She even helped our director at the big moment, when my daughter and her Dad walked down the aisle.
The food was excellent, everyone loved, it!! The employees at the reception, the bartender, and Jakie were also fabulous and did everything to help make our nite one to remember forever. They even helped me at the end of the nite, gather up all of our treasures to take home.
Brier Creek is and excellent value, we cked several places and Brier Creek turned out to be the best place for us by far!!
My daughter and son-in-law's wedding was definitely a "nite we will always remember as Totally Gorgeous" . Thanks to Shelley and the employees at Brier Creek!!

Yes, I would recommend this Vendor to Friend.
I did sign a contract to conduct business with Brier Creek.
Make my review anonymous, please.

Brier Creek was a great choice for our wedding! I can't say enough good things about it. The staff was all very friendly and helpful, and it was priced very well. We were coming from out of town and doing our planning remotely, and Brier Creek made everything very easy on us.

Catering and rentals (linens, tables, etc..) are all done in-house, and we were very pleased with the quality of everything. The food was great! We did the music (speakers + iPod) and flowers (Costco) ourselves, and the only other vendors we needed to work with were for photography, cake, and hair/makeup.

We had our ceremony outside in Jasmine Court, and it was beautiful. It's big enough to accommodate larger ceremonies, but it also worked perfectly for our small, 45-person ceremony. Our cocktail hour and reception were held inside. The place is lovely, and it had a nice, intimate feel. Definitely recommended!

My husband and I wanted an outdoor ceremony with an indoor reception and that's exactly what Brier Creek offered, and so much more! Shelly Keeter, single handedly made the wedding planning so much easier. She's quick to respond, especially to emails, which I loved since I couldn't always call during the work day. She is very accommodating and flexible. She even went out of her way to provide items for a tea ceremony during our wedding ceremony and worked with us to make some family traditions possible during our reception. The venue is beautiful and the food is to die for. The filet was cooked perfectly, the chicken was moist, and the salmon was delicious. Everyone commented on how delicious and beautiful everything was. They even had a small platter of hors d'oeuvres set aside for the wedding party so that we could nibble after the pictures were taken. The best part was that we did not have to organize any of the day of decorations: Shelly coordinated with all vendors on delivery/arrival time while the BCCC staff took care of all decorations (ie. guest books, pictures, table numbers, etc.) We opted to have our own ceremony coordinator (just some friends) so that Shelly's attention was focused on setting everything up for the cocktail hour and reception. Our day was the most perfect day ever and I know it wouldn't have been nearly as wonderful without Shelly and the BCCC staff!

Shelly Keeter and the staff at Brier Creek Country Club are simply amazing! The venue is gorgeous, and the food is delicious! My husband and I wanted an outdoor ceremony, an indoor reception, and great food - with Brier Creek we got just that. We were also able to customize our food and beer selections, which was great! Everything was perfect, and our guests had a blast. Working with Shelly was by far the best part of our experience with BCCC. She made everything easy and fun, and made my husband and I feel valued. I would highly recommend BCCC, and especially Shelly!

We chose Brier Creek Country Club for several reasons. The price, the location, and one of the deciding factors was definitely their catering director Shelly Keeter. Brier Creek Country Club has an amazing location outdoors for a beautiful outdoor ceremony (which was a big deal for us). Their ballroom is beautiful and the perfect size for pretty much any wedding. We had thought that we would have over 100 guests, however once our final guest count came due we actually had about 70. We were afraid that the ballroom would look bare with our size wedding but we fit perfectly! The food at Brier Creek was also amazing (my husband stated that it was like heaven on a plate)! Last but definitely not least was Shelly, she made everything so easy and was always available for the smallest questions. Shelly made sure we understood everything that was going on and always made us feel like we were her top priority even when the wedding was still months away.

I absolutely loved our venue!!! BCCC is a BEAUTIFUL venue! We did our ceremony outside at Jasmine's court and then did our reception in Palmer's Cove. We worked closely with Shelly Keeter to make sure all the details were taken care of. She was extremely organized, professional, and always had a great attitude. She made it so easy to work with her. We got so many compliments on the food and great service. We couldn't have been happier!

Could not have been happier with our wedding at Brier Creek CC in Raleigh. The ceremony site was beautiful, the reception hall and cocktail hour rooms worked great. Shelly was amazing to work with and made everything SO easy. She single handedly prevented many panic attacks. The food and service were unbelievable. Many compliments from guests. It was a fabulous day and the perfect venue.

Shelly was great! She was so helpful. When we walked into the reception venue we were blown away, she had everything done exactly as I had pictured it. She even surprised us with a monogrammed ice sculpture for our cocktail hour! She was great at getting back to us and made us feel extremely important.

The night of the wedding she was continuously asking if we needed anything and her staff is amazing! We worked very closely to develop our own custom menu and the food was spectacular. The chef went above and beyond and the entire experience was great.

I would highly recommend using Brier Creek, it took so much stress off of my husband and I because we knew that everything was taken care of and under control!

Awesome spot to have reception. Their food was unbelievable and Shelly is amazing. ThankYou!!!!

Very easy to work with, would definitely recommend. Shelly was a pleasure to work with and did a great job!

Shelly Keeter and the whole staff at BCCC were an amazing bunch to work with!! The property, and the venue its self is pristine, and beautiful.

We had an a very small wedding and our room looked beautiful and romantic!!

The venue is absolutley beautiful and the service is top notch! We immediately knew we wanted to have our reception at Brier Creek Country Club and Shelly, the Catering Director sealed the deal! She was fantastic at understanding what our dream wedding looked like. She always called right back or responded right away to emails. She worked with our budget and was very flexible. On the wedding day, Shelly and the staff were non stop and extremely accomodating to our guests. We had our cocktail hour in the Palmers Cove and our guests were able to use the outside patio as well. The reception was in the grand ballroom which is absolutey beautiful. The food was always hot and our guests are still raving on how good it was and how big their entrees were. We also did a nacho bar toward the end of the reception that was a hit!!! I absolutely recommend Brier Creek Country Club and it was such a pleasure working with Shelly and the rest of the team there!

We had our ceremony and reception at Brier Creek Country club and it was perfect! The convenience of holding them both in the same location was wonderful and allowed us to take advantage of the beautiful North Carolina September weather for our outdoor ceremony and then enjoy the elegantness of the ballroom for our reception. Shelly, the events coordinator at the club was very professional and willing to help tailor our wedding to whatever we wanted and had wonderful ideas of how to incorporate things within our budget. I would highly recommend Brier Creek Country Club to any future bride!

5 STAR VENUE. Brier Creek Country Club provided 5 star service in every aspect. Shelly and her team are fabulous to work with and are very organized and experienced in event planning. Every bit of advice Shelly had for us during the planning process was perfect. The bride and groom had a reception that was exactly what they wanted. The appetizers, food, drink, decor and service were above expectations. We had a photobooth at the reception and guests were writing about the fabulous food in the guest photo book! Shelly was professional, responsive and a real pleasure to work with while planning the wedding. Every detail was handled to perfection.

We went to several different locations to look for wedding reception venues and this one was the first one. We kept comparing everything to BCCC and it became an easy decision to book them for our wedding reception. They recently had a change of staff and Shelly and her staff at BCCC was so helpful in planning the reception and they do a good job working with your budget. Even many of the vendors had good comments about the staff there. They do a lot of the work for you which is great, because the bride and groom have enough to worry about with wedding planning. We had great comments about the scenery, food and hospitality of BCCC from our wedding guests and they helped make the night go smoothly. Overall, it was a great decision to have our reception at Brier Creek Country Club!

Shelly Keeter and the entire crew at Brier Creek made our wedding day absolutely magnificent. Shelly, coordinated our day beautifully (including all of the small personal touches we wanted to include in our reception)....we didn't have to worry about a single thing and that was a huge relief when it came down to the day of the wedding. Three months later, our guests are still raving about the food...and I don't blame them, the chef was phenomenal. I give Brier Creek Country Club and Shelly Keeter, without a doubt, 5 stars.

I recently had both my ceremony and reception at Brier Creek County Club. We've received many compliments on how wonderful everything was - from how great the food was to how beautiful the venue was! Shelly Keeter was amazing to work with. She was extremely flexible and offered tons of helpful insight throughout our entire planning process! I would highly recommend this wonderful venue!

Loved the venue. Perfect Location for our wedding. Everything went so well with the help of our planner Shelly Keeter. We were so pleased with everything, from the food to all the little details that were taken care of. We would highly recommend Brier Creek!

We had our wedding on April 21, 2012 at Brier Creek Country Club and everything was perfect! We had an absolute amazing time and Shelly (the wedding coordinator) was awesome! As far as I know, everything went off without a hitch and I could spend my day just enjoying and not worrying. I'm sure there were things that went awry in the background, but if they did, the venue and Shelly didn't show it and no one noticed. Everyone at our reception said the food was amazing and that was something that was really important to us. The hot food was hot, the cold food was cold. We even had some caterers in our group and they said that they were shocked at how good the food was. I always knew our wedding day was in good hands with Shelly and Brier Creek, but on our wedding day our expectations were not only met, but exceeded. I would recommend Brier Creek Country Club to anyone looking for a great venue with great service, a great staff that's easy to work with, great food and looking to have a great wedding!

They were wonderful! Every detail was attended to. The rooms were beautiful, and the food was outstanding.

Working with Brier Creek Country Club was great, and in particular their catering manager Shelly was excellent. The place is beautiful and everyone loved the food.

We had our reception here at Brier Creek Country Club and it was amazing. The room was better than I had envisioned, and the staff was completely helpful and professional. The cocktail hour that the guests had while we were taking pictures was outside by the golf course, and everyone said by far that was the best they have ever been to. I would recommend having your reception here without a doubt because everyone was great to work with beforehand and made sure that everything was exactly what I wanted the day of.

My husband and I just had our ceremony and reception at Brier Creek Country Club in February and it was an amazing experience. Working with Kristie was effortless, she is so responsive and wonderful no matter what the question or issue is. My head count ended up being 25+ what we initially thought it would be, and even though we had not booked the ballroom, she let us move at the last minute, and had a smile on her face the entire time. She was there the night before and the day of to get us anything that I could have possibly requested. The Country Club itself if beautiful and everyone loved it. I highly recommend Brier Creek to any bride looking for a venue. You will not be disappointed.

We used Brier Creek for both our ceremony and our reception site. Besides the beauty of the sites, the staff at Brier Creek were incredibly helpful. They were always quick to respond to questions and worked with us on problems. The wedding itself was beautiful and we owe a lot of that to the staff at Brier Creek. I highly recommend Brier Creek as a wedding site.

Our food was excellent!! People are still talking about it! Brier Creek was such a great choice for our ceremony and reception location.

Brier Creek is beautiful. We had a gorgeous outdoor ceremony and our dream reception. Working with Kristie could not have been more fun or easy. She gave us great vendor recommendations and she made our wedding day so easy. We hired her to be our day of coordinator and it was seamless. If there were any problems I don't know of them! The food is also amazing! One of our guests cut his filet mignon with a fork! We also had an ice cream bar and it was so much fun! The staff at Brier Creek can not be beat!

The ballroom is beautiful and the site is gorgeous! The food is fantastic no matter what you order! I had my wedding reception at Brier Creek and I've also attended several weddings there and I am never let down by their food or service. The staff is very attentive and quick. They are great to work with from beginning to end.

They were fantastic from beginning to end. The waitstaff was almost too attentive. The food was very yummy. The site is beautiful.

The moment my husband and I walked into Brier Creek, we knew that we wanted our special day to take place here. We had an outdoor ceremony with our reception in the main ballroom. Shelly was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. She was patient and helpful with all our wedding details. She even helped us plan out a timeline for the entire evening which helped everything run smoothly. The best part however was the food! Every guest could not stop raving about how delicious the food was from the hors d'oeuvres to the entrees to the cookie bar!

I had my wedding ceremony and reception at Brier Creek Country Club in May. I had booked the venue back in October and at that time they were already running out of availability! I worked with Shelly in the planning of the event. Shelly was great to work with and was always able to answer any of my questions, no matter how trivial or minute they were! She was very helpful in planning of the event. On the wedding day, everything at the club went so well and so smoothly thanks to Shelly's guidance. Everything was set up and looked great. My guests knew exactly where to go and when. The whole day flowed very well. My guests as well as my husband and I truly had a great time. I am so happy I chose to have my wedding at Brier Creek Country Club. The day could not have gone any smoother or have been done any better!

I enjoyed working with all of the employees at Brier Creek Country Club. The event was beautiful and the food was perfect.

The staff at Brier Creek was extremely flexible and easy to work with. They worked hard to ensure that everything ran smoothly on our wedding day, and it certainly did!

Brier Creek Country Club was absolutely FANTASTIC! Rebecca Lyons was TERRIFIC. We had a small mishap with the bar bill, but she resolved it right away. I could not have had a better venue for our wedding.

We absolutely loved our experience with Brier Creek Country Club. We decided to book with them for many reasons – the price, the locations (close to the airport for all our out of town guests), and, of course, how great Shelly Keeter was! We loved that we could have our ceremony outside in the beautiful Jasmine Court, and then go inside to the ballroom for the reception. Palmer’s cove was also a beautiful area, and served as a great cocktail hour location. Everyone was so incredibly helpful the whole day, and I didn’t have to worry about a single detail. Shelly made sure everything ran smoothly. The food was amazing, and the ballroom looked so beautiful. All our guests were very impressed with the whole wedding.

Brier Creek was the perfect site for our reception. The food was a fabulous sit-down dinner called the Trio: small filet mignon, 3 shrimp, and chicken breast, served with seasonal veggies and delicious sauces. The reception hall was beautiful and everything went smoothly and according to plan. We also had a cocktail hour in another room before the wedding party arrived with butler passed hors d'oeuvres, which was a really nice touch. No complaints at all. We'd definitely use Brier Creek again.

We really enjoyed our reception and found the overall experience very good. There was some change-over in staff during our planning process that caused communication to be slow, but overall we thought the value and service was very good. The food was excellent.

Overall, my wife and I enjoyed our experience at Brier Creek. However, there were a few things that could be improved. A few months before our wedding, our point of contact person changed from Elise Cranford to Shelly Keeter. Elise was awesome and very responsive. We found Shelly to not be as responsive as we would like. We often had to send several follow up emails/phone calls to get into contact with her, which was frustrating. We feel that there could have been better communication from Shelly. We did not intend to use individual place cards at the reception, both my wife and I and our wedding planner informed Shelly about this, but a few days prior to the wedding she told us that we had to have individual place cards. This is was fine, but a little more notice would have been appreciated. It was our understanding that we paid to rent out the entire clubhouse/venue for our wedding. However, there were people (not our guests) walking around in the background during our ceremony. Also, while the groomsmen and myself were getting ready, apparently one of the members of the country club complained that we were using a room (we were told that we could use the room) to get ready in since we were not members of the club. Our day of coordinator eventually got everything sorted out, but I was put off by it to say the least. These were the main issues. Our guests loved the venue, atmosphere, and the food. We loved our wedding!

I recently had my wedding at Brier Creek CC. The club is beautiful and the food is outstanding. The wedding was really great, but most of the credit goes to my other vendors. I had a few issues with the club that I have outlined. Shelly, the event coordinator, was nice. However, she was too laid back for my tastes. She didn’t take notes in our meetings, and didn’t seem to fully read my emails. I felt like I had to repeat things often. Our tasting was pushed back so many times I thought I was going to have to pick foods from the menu before I had even tried them. Luckily I had stations and not a sit-down dinner, because my invitations went out weeks before we had our selections. Pricing was never even discussed. I brought it up a few times and was told there was no way to estimate costs until a menu was decided on. However, the tasting was so late that I didn’t even get an estimate on full costs until I asked for it a week before the wedding. Despite all of that, the last meeting before the wedding went really well. All of my questions were answered, and I was feeling really good about everything. The rehearsal and the wedding day changed that. First, Shelly snapped at me during the rehearsal because I asked for the bridal party to be lined up differently. She showed up much later than discussed on Saturday and made it very clear that she did not want to be there. She made a comment to my mom about brides usually having a day-of coordinator to handle details. If she had mentioned that in any of our correspondence, I would have been happy to hire one, but I didn’t know. She went home as soon as our dinner was served and left someone else in charge. The line for the bar was 80 people long at one point, and there was only one person serving drinks when I was supposed to have 3 bartenders. Some of my guests waited half an hour for drinks. I was just a little disappointed with the end result because all of my other vendors were outstanding.

I was so excited to have my wedding here. I wish I had the experience that the other folks had. NOT THE CASE!
Kristy the Catering Manger is a joke. I could run circles around her if given the chance. She was the most unorganized scatterbrained person I worked with during my wedding planning. I NEVER had good vibes and I should have just run but I thought it has to get better. I met another lady at an event and she and I clicked which is why I went there to have my meeting go through everything I wanted and she seemed to really get what I wanted. THEN she was laid off by Toll Bros and Kristy took over....big mistake. I had to go over everything again and she just had this glossed over look every time we talked and I met with her agani just because I didnt think she got it the first time.

She promised she understood exactly what I wanted, cleared it with the Chef and we were good. We had the tasting event and the chef came by to chat with the brides and I asked him again if he knew what I wanted for my french fry stand at the end of the night. HE was like um I have no idea what you are talking about. So then Kristy said "oh we have a new chef and i have not talked to him about it yet". So I told him what I wanted and he said no problem. I specifically said if they will be sitting in a chafing dish and not cooked to order then I was not interested. I was assured he had a way he could do it fry daddy style and it was fine.

In all honestly there is so much crap that happened I cant even tell it all on here so this is my example.

So they charged me $4pp for this Fry Station. The last hour was when it was supposed to run and what did they do but make fries put them in a big silver chafing dish and let them just sit out there. No lamps like a typical station would have nothing....I didnt even know they put them out.

Then at the end of the night I asked the guy who took over since Kristy left half way through for our food so we could leave since we never got to eat and I tolf Kristy we wanted to take food with us. He said um there is no food for you. I WAS LIVID. I just paid thousands and never ate one bite aside from a roll with some meat from my carving station my cousin gave me as I was starving.

I specifically told her I wanted food to go so what did they do...thew some salad in a container (we didnt have salad) and gave us some of our leftover meat and rolls that they happed to still have (prob bc the staff was going to take it home) and something else I was never sure what it was. So needless to say all we had to eat was meat and rolls. even the salad was wilted.

If it wasnt for the band (Magic Pipers), my photog and Lyn Graves my florist the place would have been a joke.

I was soosososo disappointed. almost 2 years later I am still PISSED! I pray no other bride has the issues I had and I hope you NEVER have to deal with KRisty Taylor EVER!!! She is horrible. (Oh yes they were lined up outside for our "leave" and she sent us out the wrong door! What an idiot!!)

STAY FAR AWAY.....I wish I went with Marriott Downtown now as that lady was much more put together and able to get it done. Oh well.

I am writing this as a guest. Horrible service at the wedding. No announcements of champagne, cake, coffee. Not an attendant in site. Very unimpressed - spend your money somewhere else if you want your guests to be happy.
